IRS.gov is using many social media tools to share public information with its users. The IRS.gov offers its users to share the latest information on tax changes, initiatives, products and services via various social media tools. These SM tools include YouTube, Twitter, Tumblr, Facebook and more.

However, IRS.gov informed its users to not to post their social security number or other confidential information on these social media sites. As at the IRS, privacy and security are paramount. So ths users should always protect their identity when using any social networking site. And IRS also clears that it will not answer any personal tax or account questions on any of these sites.
